to be lighted once more. This seems almost
too pood to be true, ktit Mich seems to be
the case. At a special meeting of the City
Council last evening the report, as agreed
to by the counuittee on the part of the city,
and the ofliccrs of the iai Company, w.-w

muzzled aceordini: to law, without regard
to ownership, breed, or value. This is 110
pleasant job. but the Marshal hits 110 choice
but to discharge hi duty as laid down in
the ordinances of the city, lie trusts that
dog owners will comply with the law and
hint the trouble of executing these au
imals. Let no man blame h'tu for doing
his duty in this or any other respect.
I'i:kson*i..—Our
respected fellow citizen,
Kx-Ma\or llcnrv, returned home a few da\s
since from New York find W t«shington,
where he has been stopping for sonic Weeks
looking after the interests of the M. A M.
and the IV/illc Railiv-ads. He reports mat
ters progressing ijuite f«vo ah!v.

hundred :not'o engaged on the I'acifi'"* line'
w.-st «f «ni:,h i. Kvery xertion is made to
procure labor, and the only question of
reaching Dm Moines by the first of nest
January is that of procuring men to do the
grading. Everything else is amply provided
for.
CITY BOASD or Ki Af j/.ATION.—Sitfe tlie
2f'th of la month and until quite recently,
the Board appointed by the City Council—
consisting of Satnuel llirs-*hl. G. S. C. low
and C. H. Kent—to equalize the assessment
rolls of the city, have been in session, and
the work has been most thoroughly prose
cuted. Credit is due tlu-m for exercising
some judgment in changing the figures
found upon the Assessor's books. The
property about the business part of the city
has undergone a thorough overhauling, and
in most instances has been materially raised.
The Hoard iivreased the assessment on—
al Estate .. .^26i\fKK)
J', r- t:al piepoity 14",ih«!
Total tfoy.ooo
Iher found assessed $8,685,4w
Assessment now stands $4,vso,400
and upon this the taxes of the year are to
be raised. The Board has discharged its
duty faithfully, and deserves the thanks of
the public for taking a decisive stand and
assessing property at something near its
feal value.
It is well to state here that the assess
ment upon which the tax of the present
year is based is eight mills on tbe dollar—
three for road purposes, and five for ail
other purposes—a gross amount of $32,
t»83.'2'k to be raised by taxation in our city
this year.
But, if we may judge of the future course
•f the present Council by its action during
the ten weeks of its existence, $:'2,i"'U
Would liardly answer, for we are officially
informed that the sum of $7,08o.40 has
already been expended. This is at the rate

The Committee take the opportunity to
report tin* suggestion made by the Hoard of
K'|tializatiou last 3 ear, thai it would be well
in future to elect two assistant assessors, to
assist in .-ipproising the value of real estate
and peivmia! property, and pio\idiug that
nil shall personally examine the premises,
we deem it impossible otherwise to to pro
vide for equal and just a-s.seuuuit, esoecia'ly
cau it not be done witiiin the time allowed
by the Council.
Your committee are convinced that the
real csu.tr of the city which is deemed busi
ness property has been assessed t.xi low
heretofore, and the valuation wf such prop
erty has been very considerably increased.
Wc think it is still assessed too low, com
paratively, but sufficient time vv.-ts not al
lowed 11s to make a thorough and complete
comparative valuation.
The committee have been pleased with
the manner in which the Assessor has dis
charged his labors. He has evidently spared
no pains in the execution of his work, and
the eoimf.ittce have ioiind him well informed,
prompt, and a great assistance to them, in
the pel Ion nance of their duty.
